Superjamshed w/ ?uestlove, Ben Harper & John Paul Jones

[spacemonkey1112]

anyone hating on this video is just hating cause you aint jamming with them... that's why you're so broke and im so paaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiid

[GranDrJ]

obviously ?uestlove is not John Bonham, he IS however, ?uestlove and is a damn good drummer in his own right. This man is a proven drummer who plays his own way, just like John Bonham would play a Roots song in his style if he could.

[liorzilka]

Sounds great! >Except the drummer< (:

[proni1]

what cd is this on i must have it

[d4enius]

led zeppelin I

[hellojenny20]

jpj i love you...and always will.

quest is the only drummer that can fill in for bonham...and that's saying alot because we all know that bonham was out of this world

[Jahreicho311]

crazy talk everyone sayin he sounds amateur get your head our ur led shell

[drksde05]

i saw this live and he def sounded a lot better then but they also let john paul do his thing

[ManOfTheMatchRock]

Everybody sounds amateur in comparison to Bonzo, but I think its the sound of the room which let ?ustlove soudn bad. He´s normally a very very tight drummer!

[calihiphop]

imitation is the biggest form of flattery.

[Kpzero22]

it might sound a little sloppy, but it's not at all amateur, especially the little groove they go into around 2:30, think about it, if he played his coined hip hop beats they wouldn't match the music nor the song, broaden your musical horizons my man

[dwelch4]

true dat

[jim267]

why does ?uestlove sound so amateur here? i was expeting a lot more from him.

[atrickp]

maybe cuz he's trying to play like john bonham... lolz

[tedshs]

hahah no one can play like bonham, my friend, no one

[mikeg610]

gotta disagree with you there. amateur is the last thing he sounds like.

[doughman43]

Dude jamming with JPJ and Mr.Harper must have been great ?uest.

[yoyoyoimBC]

would have been better with better audio recording but this was great!

[OneNationFunkHipHop]

I just wanted to say this.

I'm not a nerd, i'm not a jock. I AM A MUSICIAN

When ever there is a lunch break at school i dont study, I don't Work out. I go to the music room and chill on the drums. Instead of studying afterschool I hook up my Casio and start recording beats.

[irtimed]

cool dude...

[Timmytoga]

way to big yourself up

[jssskateboards]

you're the man

[darwinspond]

i love ben's voice. so powerful.

[yoyoyoimBC]

i play like im....same style...but i still like other styles

[irtimed]

cool dude...

[prezil17]

im going to get a shirt that says i (heart) ?

that would be fat.

[mrcanavan]

He's got a nice laid back style. Good times.

[geniusgza7]

?uestlove the funky drummer!!

[bemjamin]

haha nice

[generatrix999]

Way to show no ones close to sounding anywhere near Zeppelin. They should be doing Steel Pulse covers.

[volatilenigma]

zeppelin is hard to top... but ben harper (or any one man) trying to cover robert plant AND jimmy page himself, probably never intended to compete... good fun seeing either of them cover "classic rock"

[allwhowanderrnotlost]

outkast youre a dumbass...who gives a shit?

[outkastnerd03]

hope u guys realize this is questloves real youtube channel. haha. cmon peoples.

[risen27]

man, take that travis barker talk outta here...people, go see questlove live, itll give you a renewed appreciation for what he does.

[nickonholiday]

people need to realize that travis barker, as a musician, was the rhythm section of a corporate commodity designed to sell records and significantly shorten the attention span of young people, and not a talented craftsman like ?uestlove who seeks to create challenging, intelligent music.

[puff711]

haha amen

[christ1r]

All music serves its purpose. Intelligent music? Just because it doesn't talk to you doesn't mean it lacks intellect. Anyways, Travis Barker is bad ass drummer. Who gives a fuck if he is Hannah Montana's drummer.

[manstis1804]

Dude...?uestlove is ridiculously good. He's this era's Bonham.

[davidhariri]

who now, hes good but not THAT good, plus their completely different styles

[drewjb]

bonham is incomparable.

[namkooc]

yea ?uestlove is fucking amazing and laugh if you will but so is Travis Barker he is amazing

[HDXPC]

you know, i think i will thank you very much

HA!

well not that that is out of the way, travis barker is...ok...he was the best part of blink i would say, most talented, he did good fills but....i wouldn't go as for to say he is amazing...he is just good in blink, outside of that i don't know. same with ?uestlove but i would say ?uestlove has more room to progress as a drummer, taking into consideration the band he plays in.

[mojonproductions]

Thought JPJ and BH sounded great together but where on earth were they rehearsing, a mall?

[ilcesano]

super

[bosoxboy3]

amazing

[prolifick21]

ben harper's voice is intense i had no idea wow.

[djphatd]

shut up dude

[Doowok]

?uestlove is the fucking shit!

Bonham would have been proud.

[milky0909]

Although ?uestlove is a PHENOMENAL drummer (check out his recordings and other live work with the Roots---killer grooves), I just don't dig his take on this classic.

[ShudeBwerkin]

Whatever, this is a REHEARSAL. You have to save some shit for the stage. The live performance, which I saw at bonnaroo, was outstanding.

[monkeysee79]

damn, this is ugly. my 14 year old brother's band does a better cover of dazed & confused than this.

?uestlove sucks.

[Jasondrumcom]

you have no clue do you?

[djphatd]

You mean the 14 year old brother I molested?

[namkooc]

shut up

[slothlikewit]

what a fucking moron...

[bubbabear244]

nahh dude, that was straight up hating! besides, this is just a rehersal. this is nothing compared to when he plays live, he sounds amazing live!

[maltliquorkicker]

Yes, this was a practice session for the Bonnaroo Superjam. It was fucking awesome in person

[saylor09]

Just judging on the merits of what I see here...

Ben sounds good on vocals. Although he plays it well, his slide work isn't fantastic and I kept waiting for something more (perhaps it's not his primary instrument?). John is pretty good. I'd prefer a little tighter hi-hat action from ?. He tends to use too much symbol crashes and a very loose hi-hat (for my tastes) on much of the improv. Maybe it was just the volume.

Overall, it's a good jam that's a bit rough around the edges.

[bluedevils694]

dude this is a practice session most likly, and when u say "john is pretty good..." r u refering to john paul jones, john bonham, or dont u mean ?uestlove....???

[saylor09]

I don't presume it's anything but a jam/practice session. That's why I said "Just judging on the merits of what I see here." Just pretend you only had the audio and didn't know who was playing. Yes, when I said "John", it has to be Jones as there is no one else by the name of John there. Again, I was speaking in the context of what was going on here. Are you questioning that I seemed to be diminishing who the mighty John Paul Jones is or perhaps that I was saying that about John as a whole?

[bluedevils694]

o i gotcha, i re-read your first comment, i misunderstood what u said before...im pretty sure i was drunk when i wrote my comment...sry for the mix up

[saylor09]

hey dude... no problem! :-)

[avpala2]

i bet thiss is the holiday where us v.i.p. guests signed in.

[Dispepsic]

damn

i was looking at this like "oh, should be good, ben harper, ?uest, john paul jones....that names familiar. oh well."

"oh look, it's dazed and confused, awesome!"

".....wait a second. john paul jones? as in.....O_O"

[disposablexhero]

I would kill just to be one of those people walking by that day.

[APerfectDayElise]

I would've killed to worked at that Holiday Inn on that day. :)

[neobob187]

When and where the hell did this happen? I was at bonnaroo lol.

[petercockroach]

Isn't ?uestlove a drum machine? I'm getting one for Christmas!!!

[lighthammer69]

I will agree with most in saying that Quest is a good drummer, and the Roots are a phenomenal hip hop band, but I can't say he is one of the best drummers alive like twomey565 said. Ben Harper is a great song writer and musician and JPJ, well I don't have to say anything about him. Although it's weird to Quest playing on a kit that size, usually he plays a small 3 piece kit. I wish I was in that room that day!

[jsr9422]

is this you recording??!!

[viumanent]

woooooooooooooooow never thought would see this, i was there!

[lindice2001]

wow. what else is there to say

[twomey565]

yea mophead why dont you get that dick out of your mouth and listen to the roots. ?uestlove is one of the greatest drummers alive. YOU SUCK

[EvilEvil66]

wow this is sooo dope.... hell ya.

[Bagirba]

mophead888, oh pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease...

Shut the fuck up.

[mophead888]

that is without a doubt, the absolute worst drummer ive ever heard, especially trying to cover dazed and confused. he made me want to rip off my ears. jpj is the man though. always solid

[firehehe]

LOL @ mophead888...so utterly clueless.

[killingisfun52]

don't judge him by this one recording, go look up some of the roots songs, he's great

[JahRoottz]

ah you serious!

mate youve got a fucking lot learn before you can judge him!

go check out his other stuff and youll see what were talking about!

?uestlove of the Roots

[xkillerbassx]

This is the most unreal rhythm section ever!

[sansured]

That's John Paul Jones, Led F'n Zeppelin's bass player, and all round musical genius. Arguably the most influential rock bassist to ever pick of the instrument.

[mospeed1417]

Where you was goin was everywhere I like it too dude that was sick.

[nmv5]

this must be from the holiday inn in Manchester, TN right before Bonnaroo. The Super Jam with these 3 was sick...

[FernandoDANTE]

How the fuck did you get this amazing footage?

[noseated]

hahaha...

[logistik]

fucking sick

[dollabillbeats]

dope as fuck

[key3121]

That guy singing has that blue-eyed soul down.

Drummer "I'm really excited."

Bassplayer "This guys def no Jimmy Page, but boy is he easier to work with."

[BenWannaBee]

how the hell did you get this!!?!?! haha awesome

[KwesiK]

Ok, my brain broke. What song is this...?

[BenWannaBee]

wow. dazed and confused

[KwesiK]

Of course....how appropriate.

[TrueScience]

you gotta be the happiest drummer in the world.

[TrueScience]

whats the name of your experimental band you played with during the roots break?

[extrapulakatekel]

god dayum history
